Disruption plasmid of Thermus Thermophilus HB8 gene

The gene disruptant of T. thermophils HB8 can be easily prepared by adding this plasmid into the culture medium. The target gene in this plasmid was replaced by the thermostable kanamycin resistant gene from Staphylococcus aureus. The length of the homologous region outside of the target gene is about 500 bp (only 10 bp of the target geneare left in both sides) .
